COACHING
The coaching curriculum is designed and delivered by Chelsea FC Foundation, one of the world’s leading football, education and community programmes. Grouped by age, young players learn to master the skills and techniques needed for each position in a fun and engaging environment. The curriculum focuses on Chelsea’s fast, attacking style of football and each day is themed on a different Chelsea First Team player, looking at the skills and strengths that they bring to the team. Coaches focus on supporting player development with challenges, drills and games where players can experience success and gain measurable progress.
During workshops, players consider football off the pitch, looking at the qualities of players in Chelsea’s first team. Discussions, games and workshops on team tactics, nutrition and mental preparation introduce players to what life is like as a Chelsea professional in an accessible and interesting way.
ENGLISH
Our carefully designed English syllabus is based on the CLIL approach used in prestigious schools worldwide. Students are grouped into the appropriate class for their age and level based on a pre-camp online test and a verbal assessment on day one. At camp, they are immersed in an English-speaking environment 24/7 with teachers staying on-site. As well as general English, we use sports-related English topics in class to engage students in fun and interactive lessons. A combination of traditional classroom techniques, active participation and project work gives students the tools they need to communicate effectively during their coaching sessions and in the wider world.
RESULTS
Players will improve through a combination of coaching, skills challenges and small-sided games. They leave with a better understanding of themselves as a player and gain confidence and insight from an international football environment. Their English skills are developed inside and outside the classroom, improving all aspects of their communication and understanding. All players receive an individual coaching review and certificate. Players also leave with an English report from their teacher and advice on how to continue improving their English at home.
